Search your harddrive for that file. I had that with another program the other day (what was it... aehm... yudit? i don't remember) and the final linking looked for a shared object in a directory that doesn't exist. Dunno why, nothing as to that in the makefile. I made a symlink from the real file to the "supposed" one, it compiled, linked, complained it found ambiguous shared objects and used the real one instead. Maybe that could work for you. Make sure to remove the symlink afterwards for cleanliness.

And that other computers and operating systemswill do with brute force what the Amiga did years before withgrace, elegance and style.

It sounds like you didn't feed your current overlay CDs alongside your development libs/IRIX base. For example - if you have IRIX 6.5.22 currently installed but with no development environment, you will need to re-insert your base IRIX 6.5 CDs (which includes your development CDs) AND your IRIX 6.5.22 overlays to resolve any conflicts.

I've tried contacting Gandalf but to no avail. Anyway, I just got my set of Irix cds and I wanted to try them out. I don't really want to clean reinstall since I've heard horror stories so I'll try Neko's suggestion first.

I recently had a situation similar to yours, and re-installing the development libs plus the *.22 overlays solved the problem for me.

hmm. No avail? catch me in IRC... and I'll pass you a binary.. But on the long run, you better fix up your box probably.
Zhile configure works stright away on irix 4.0, on 6.5 you need to point it to the motif includes 2.1, using the appriopriate configure options (configure --help)

I clean reinstalled, which was interesting. Could they make the install process any more cryptic? It went okay after I figured out (after an hour or so of trying) that my cd wasn't bootable. I did fubar installing the overlays to to go from 6.5.0 to 6.5.13, things you learn. So reinstalled irix again and did the overlays from miniroot.
